Ronald Acuña Jr. should be the face of baseball.

Ronald Acuna Jr. Face of baseball? Face of baseball. He should be... He had like a 420-foot home run, and he beat out an infield single on the same game. He's got it all. Five tool player.

The 'face of baseball' is an unofficial and subjective title, though Acuña did go on to win the NL MVP in 2023.

Tiger Woods would have won the 2021 Masters if he had been able to play

I think Tiger [Woods] would have won this Masters, I'll be honest with you. I agree.

This is entirely speculative as Tiger Woods was recovering from a major car accident at the time and could not compete.

Hideki Matsuyama should serve blowfish liver at the Champions Dinner next year

If I'm Hideki, I serve blowfish liver and let the chips fall where they may maybe thin out the field a little bit. See who gets poisoned.

Matsuyama served a menu including Miyazaki Wagyu, but did not serve poisonous blowfish liver.

Brooks Koepka is a hero for playing the Masters on one leg

We should also say the real winner of this Masters is Brooks Koepka. Competing on one leg like a warrior. Walking paralyzed man. Exactly. So the fact he was even able to get out there and play two rounds of golf. That's impressive.

Koepka did play through a significant knee injury, but 'hero' status is a subjective characterization used for comedic effect.

The WNBA badly mishandled its Finals scheduling

Instead of doing it in an arena where it's like a 5,000 capacity arena, they could have done it at the regular time. They chose to do 12:30 in the afternoon.

This is a judgment about scheduling strategy and is subjective.

There is real tension between Jalen Brown and the Celtics

I don't think it's Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown really have personal beef. I think it's just, you know, Jalen Brown, Celtics, and that's turning into Jason Tatum in some ways. But I think there's definitely beef between Jalen Brown and the Celtics organization.

The existence and extent of internal tension is not definitively verifiable from the transcript alone.

The Browns cannot make a serious playoff run

Could they make a run to the Super Bowl? No. Yes or no. Yeah. Think of the Browns. The Browns aren't good. We know the Browns aren't good.

The Browns' eventual playoff performance will determine whether they make a serious postseason run.
